Abstract

A heat sealing apparatus includes a pair of sealing jaws and means for closing the jaws, the first of said jaws having an electrical impulse sealing element mounted thereon, covered with a release sheet, and the second of said jaws having a resilient pad mounted thereon, covered with a release sheet, wherein a heat dispersing foil is between the resilient pad and the release sheet which covers the pad.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
       1. In an apparatus for simultaneously sealing and cutting through at least two layers of thermoplastic film, which apparatus includes a pair of sealing jaws and means for closing the jaws, the first of said jaws having an electrical impulse sealing element mounted thereon, said heat sealing element being covered with a release sheet, the second of said jaws having a resilient pad mounted thereon, said resilient pad being covered with a release sheet, the improvement comprising a flexible heat dispersing foil between the resilient pad and the release sheet which covers the pad. 
     
     
       2. An apparatus according to claim 1 wherein the heat dispersing foil is made of nickel or nickel alloy. 
     
     
       3. An apparatus according to claim 1 wherein the release sheets are made from woven glass fibre tape impregnated with polytetrafluoroethylene. 
     
     
       4. An apparatus according to claim 2 wherein the release sheets are made from woven glass fibre tape impregnated with polytetrafluoroethylene.
